2007-05-25T12:02:00.001Z

James, Jon & Guinness from the former Eat the Beat record shop kicked things off this month in the front bar.

Momentum got the back room going at midnight and quickly filled the floor...

Red One took the stage at 1am and smashed the place up!

Unfortunately, that vid cut out just as I made it to the front bar dancefloor, where Noodles and Jody had people jumping...

LHS rounded off a quality night...

But nobody seems to be able to explain this...

Toby surpassed himself this month, with 97 pics on DSI.com!! Definitely worth checking out.

Big shout to all the ravers - hope you can make it back next month for our first birthday bash - been looking forward to this one for ages...

Breakout presents Taxman (Ganja/Propaganda) Friday 16th March

2007-03-17T18:16:00.000Z

Breakout's biggest rave yet was kickstarted by Wilbur, and then Left Hand Skratch in the front bar...

Stig got the back room going at Midnight, and quickly filled the floor...

Taxman hit the decks at 1am...

...and the messiness began...

The Croft soundsystem stood up well to the filthy bass-driven onslought!

Meanwhile, the Shantisound DJs kept the front bar pumping...

With the help of olli_hands...

Massive night - watch out for more snippets (including L.H.S. mix from the night) on the Breakout Myspace - Many thanks to all the ravers as always!

Breakout Presents DJ Dazee/Dutty Girl, Friday 16th February

Breakout presents Aries (Co-Lab/Lion Dubs) Friday 19th January

2007-01-22T18:10:00.000Z

Another top night - many thanks to all in attendance. Yet again I'm thankful that we had a don'tstayin.com 'spotter' at the event, as I somehow only managed to take six photos throughout the night. Toby's photos do the event far more justice, so check them out here!

Big respect to Aries for a quality set that even lured half the bar-staff onto the dancefloor!

So, there's a little snippet for you. Make sure you check out these pics and spot yourself!

Breakout@The Croft, Friday 15th December

2006-12-17T01:50:00.000Z

I'm afraid my handful of photo's can't do this month's event justice, but thankfully we had a 'spotter' from Don't Stay In.com, so make sure you check out these pics and see if you can spot yourself. That's presuming you want to own up to it!

Special Guest 'Ann Pan' kicked things off this month with a blinding set which had people dancing all over the venue, before they'd even finished their first pint.

Stig beat the rest of the crowd into submission with another quality set...

...Which made things nice and easy for Left Hand Skratch to keep those feet moving.

Wilbur & H20 kept it rocking into the early hours

More fingers...

Finally, after six hours of relentless quality drum'n'bass, and three requests from the bouncer, it all had to end with a bit of reggae (and a lot of drunken dancing!)

Again, many thanks to all who took part and made it another top night. Don't forget to check out these pics and see if you can spot yourselves.

Finally, next month's event promises to be another cracker, so make sure you put Friday 19th January in your diaries. We've booked a relative newcomer to the drum'n'bass scene in ARIES, but we're really excited about bringing him to Bristol for the first time, as he's been responsible for producing many of the reggae influenced drum'n'bass tracks that have been tearing up Breakout's dancefloors over the last few months. You really don't want to miss this one!

Breakout Present Blackout at the Croft, Friday 17th November

2006-11-19T13:54:00.000Z

It was a cold and miserable November day, but that didn't seem to bother the Breakout crowd.

Left Hand Skratch got the party started, warming up the dancefloor before Blackout did their thing...

...And what a thing it was. Blackout completely rocked the foundations, and left the sell-out crowd screaming for more!

Here they are performing their latest release, 'Massaka'.

Meanwhile, out in the front bar...

As the night went on, Shanti Sound DJ's rocked the front bar, while King Kong vs. Hornblower did their thing in the back room...

olli_hands doing what he does best...

H20 and Wilbur kept the front bar rocking into the early hours...

...With a bit of help from Mr Freakes at the end of the night, who still had some energy left from somewhere after that fine dancing display!

What a top night - many thanks to all who came along. It was great to see so many smiles on the dancefloor! The details of our next event will be announced soon - watch this space.

BLACKOUT Perform at Breakout! Friday 17th November, 9-4@The Croft

2006-11-01T12:01:00.000Z

This month's event promises to be a big one. Local Drum'n'Bass outfit BLACKOUT have confirmed their attendance! Anyone who was at Blackout's last Croft performance will know it's worth arriving early to avoid disappointment.

Residents Left Hand Skratch, Stig, Wilbur & H20 will be joining Breakout favourites King Kong vs. Hornblower (with live trumpet & FX) to keep the party going into the early hours.

olli_hands will be joined by Rick on the live percussion section, and the live theme will run throughout the night with Cameron Pearce accompanying the DJ's on his double bass, joined by Andy Nimmo on Saxophone.

NOT TO BE MISSED!!

Original Breakout members, Tom & Will (H2O and Wilbur back from their 2003 glory days!)

Benny Page's "Turn down the lights" gets people's feet moving.

Finally, Jon 'hornblower' Winder proves that not only can he play the trumpet, but he knows how to dance to drum'n'bass too...
